What happened?

In recently published a blog post — http://prtksxna.com/2017/07/18/1389/ — which I syndicated to Twitter using this plugin — https://twitter.com/prtksxna/status/887347617646202881. While I had set the post excerpt to…

…leading her daughter to describe the work as painting… https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jul/15/maryam-mirzakhani-mathematician-dies-40

…and Link Back to Post as Maybe, it used the post body to create the tweet.

What should've happened?

It should have used the excerpt instead, as I had marked in the settings.

I think the issue might be a missing class https://github.com/dshanske/bridgy-publish/blob/master/includes/class-bridgy-postmeta.php#L296
